From: Rik van Riel <r...@redhat.com>
Some sysrq handlers can run for a long time, because they dump a lot
of data onto a serial console. Having RCU stall warnings pop up in
the middle of them only makes the problem worse.
This patch temporarily disables RCU stall warnings while a sysrq
request is handled.
